In light of the known Higgs mass and the current constraints on the quark-lepton Higgs coupling, we derive conditions for extracting upper limits on the lepton-nucleon Higgs coupling from light atoms and ions, assuming the availability of…
Fully relativistic approach to evaluate the correlation effects in highly charged ions is presented. The interelectronic-interaction contributions of first and second orders in $1/Z$ are treated rigorously within the framework of…
The present knowledge of Lamb shift, fine-, and hyperfine structure of the 2S and 2P states in muonic helium-3 ions is reviewed in anticipation of the results of a first measurement of several $\mathrm{2S\rightarrow2P}$ transition…
We present numerical values for the self-energy shifts predicted by QED (Quantum Electrodynamics) for hydrogenlike ions (nuclear charge $60 \le Z \le 110$) with an electron in an $n=3$, 4 or 5 level with high angular momentum ($5/2\le j \le…
By enhancing electron position fluctuations, equilibrium electromagnetic radiation modifies the potential for an electron in a Hydrogen atom. This can have significant effects for weakly bound states and especially at finite temperature.…
We investigate the coupling between Rydberg states of electrons trapped on a liquid Helium surface and Landau levels induced by a perpendicular magnetic field. We show that this realises a prototype quantum system equivalent to an atom in a…
The Lamb shift as an additional energy correction induced by environments usually has a marginal contribution and hence is neglected. We demonstrate that the Lamb shift, which modifies the energy levels, can influence the heat current to…
The measurement of the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen and the subsequent emergence of the proton-radius puzzle have motivated an experimental campaign devoted to measuring the Lamb shift in other light muonic atoms, such as muonic deuterium…
The electron-electron interaction correction of first order in $1/Z$ to the one-electron part of the nuclear recoil effect on binding energies in atoms and ions is considered within the framework of the rigorous QED approach. The…
We study the shift of the energy levels of electrons on helium surface due to the coupling to the quantum field of surface vibrations. As in quantum electrodynamics, the coupling is known, and it is known to lead to an ultraviolet…
By using a Coulomb potential modified by the interaction between the magnetic moments of the electron and proton, we have calculated the energy levels of a hydrogen atom. We have obtained fine structure, hyperfine structure and the Lamb…
We review the theory of the Lamb shift for muonium, provide an updated numerical value and present the prospects of the Mu-MASS collaboration at PSI to improve upon their recent measurement. Due to its smaller nuclear mass, the…
The current status of bound state quantum electrodynamics calculations of transition energies for few-electron ions is reviewed. Evaluation of one and two body QED correction is presented, as well as methods to evaluate many-body effects…
Methods of bound-state QED that treat the self-energy contributions to the Lamb shift within the partial-wave expansion usually face the problem of slow convergence of the latter. Inspired by an approach formulated in [J. Sapirstein and K.…
High-precision laser spectroscopy of atomic hydrogen has led to an impressive accuracy in tests of bound-state quantum electrodynamics (QED). At the current level of accuracy many systematics have to be studied very carefully and only…
General expressions for quantum electrodynamic corrections to the one-loop self-energy [of order alpha(Zalpha)^6] and for the two-loop Lamb shift [of order alpha^2(Z\alpha)^] are derived. The latter includes all diagrams with closed fermion…
We consider the consequences of the presence of metric fluctuations upon the properties of a hydrogen atom. Particularly, we introduce these metric fluctuations in the corresponding effective Schroedinger equation and deduce the…
My previous calculations of the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen are reviewed and compared with other work. In addition, numerical results for muonic deuterium are presented.
The theoretical treatment of Rydberg states in one-electron ions is facilitated by the virtual absence of the nuclear-size correction, and fundamental constants like the Rydberg constant may be in the reach of planned high-precision…
Corrections to hyperfine splitting and Lamb shift of order $\alpha^2(Z\alpha)^5$ induced by the diagrams with radiative photon insertions in the electron line are calculated in the Fried-Yennie gauge. These contributions are as large as…
